Simulation of Surface Plasmon Excitation in a Plasmonic Nano-Wire Using Surface Integral Equations
In this paper, scattering of a plane and monochromatic electromagnetic wave from a nano-wire is simulated using surface integral equations. First, integral equationsgoverning unknown fields on the surface is obtained based on Stratton-Cho surface integral equations. Then, the interaction of the wave with a non-plasmonic as well as a palsmonic nano-wire is considered. It is shown that in scatter...
متن کاملKirschner Wire Breakage during Removal Requiring Retrieval
Kirschner wires (K-wires) are widely used for fixation of fractures and dislocations in the hand as they are readily available, reliable, and cost-effective. Complication rates of up to 18% have been reported. However, K-wire breakage during removal is rare. We present one such case illustrating a simple technique for retrieval. A 35-year-old male presented with a distal phalanx fracture of his...

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the treatment outcomes of perilunate dislocations (PLDs) andtransscaphoid perilunate fracture dislocations (TSPLDs) treated with operative volar approach without ligament repairor reconstruction.Methods: A total of seven patients (10 hands) were studied during 2017-2018. We fixed scaphoid fractures thorougha volar app...
متن کاملUse of a transparent cap for endoscopic drainage of a pancreatic pseudocyst.
scope cap in difficult cases has been de− scribed [1]. The use of this device to facil− itate endoscopic access to a pancreatic pseudocyst prior to drainage has not been reported before. We report the case of a 47−year−old man with abdominal pain 3 months after acute biliary pancreatitis. CT scan showed a 12−cm pseudocyst in the pancreatic body and in close contact (< 1 cm) with the posterior g...
متن کاملInfluence of an Inclusion on Multi-Pass Copper Shaped-Wire Drawing by 2D Finite Element Analysis
The size and length effects of an inclusion on multi-pass copper shaped-wire drawing were investigated. For this purpose, an experimental investigation on optimal die half-angle was conducted. Based on experimental data of optimal die half-angle, wire and inclusion deformations, drawing and hydrostatic stress of copper shaped-wires that contain an inclusion were calculated by two-dimensional fi...
